The official start of summer is quickly approaching! With that comes the end of the school year (thank goodness) and weekends full of graduation parties, bridal showers, weddings, and trips to your favorite beach town. Instead of gifting the typical check and envelope, pick out something a little bit more creative this year.

What better way to celebrate the end of the school year and the start of summer than with a trip to the beach! Gift a Montauk Tote Bag that’s strong enough to carry beach essentials and can be used for taking to class in the fall.

Pinkly Perfect’s “Happy Place” Keychain is the perfect accessory to add to a nice sized wad of cash for your college-bound graduate. Perfect to keep her dorm room key on, the leather made in the USA keychain is easy to find in a bag stuffed with Starbucks receipts and notebooks. If your grad’s particularly fond of our favorite beach towns, take a peek at our coordinate keychains too!

If your grad’s heading to college in the fall, she’ll most definitely appreciate an extra pair of leggings (AKA the college uniform). The Pinkly Perfect Margate Legging is especially soft and comfy and features a metallic silver seahorse at the hip for a nice little reminder of summer vacation.

With prom season quickly getting into full swing and warmer weather just around the corner, we’re one step closer to summer break! But as you begin your countdown during these final few months, there’s still one more thing to look forward to… Graduation!

While a lot of planning goes into throwing the perfect graduation party with just the right amount of pomp and circumstance, we girls also have to think about looking our best for the big day. And while white dresses can be perfectly stunning, there’s a new trend for those who want a fresher take on a classic look: Pink graduation dresses!

A pink dress, while it may sound simple, is an easy way to stand out in all of your graduation day selfies. Don’t believe us? Take a look at some of our favorite dresses below!

Traditional

It’s back to the basics with these dresses! Your big day should be about you, after all, so why not pick a dress that shows it?

When I first had the idea for Pinkly Perfect, I (like most socially conscious entrepreneurs) planned to incorporate some sort of element of giving back to people who needed help. I had high hopes of having a percentage of every sale benefit an organization that encouraged girls to embrace more leadership roles and confidence at an early age, something that I think is so needed and that I wish I had more of growing up.

Once I started with financial planning and examining just how much upfront cost is involved in launching a product line (hint: it is WAY more than you think!), the idea of budgeting for that seemed absolutely impossible.

So instead, I focused all of my energy on sales. Once our first birthday rolled around and I looked at my numbers, I realized there was a way to make a philanthropic element work, just maybe not in the way I originally wanted.

In honor of our 1st birthday month, Pinkly Perfect has launched her first ever give back item: our Seahorse Bracelet. The bracelet is real leather, made in the USA, and features our signature seahorse logo. It will be a constant item on our website and for every bracelet sold, we will donate 10% to Girls Inc., an organization that inspires all girls to be strong, smart, and bold.

Shop your bracelet here and wear it knowing that it’s not just a reminder of summer vacation, but it’s also a way we’re giving back and creating a world with a space for more #girlbosses. Perfect!
